This study verified the role of social connectedness as a mediator to better understand the link between adult attachment dimension and depression among inmates. Adult attachment dimension, social connectedness, and depression of 130 inmates in a detention center in Seoul were measured. The researchers conducted correlational analysis and hierarchical regression recommended by Baron & Kenny(1986) to analyze the mediation effect. Avoidant adult attachment, anxious adult attachment, and depression were positively correlated while social connectedness was negatively correlated with the other three variables. Social connectedness fully mediated the relationship between avoidant adult attachment and depression. In contrast, social connectedness partially mediated the link between anxious adult attachment and depression. The main results emphasize social connectedness to deal with depression and call for differential intervention according to one’s attachment dimension. Implications for institutional improvement and counseling practice regarding inmates are discussed as well as limitations and suggestions for future research. (148 words).
